In Feng shui, the dragon is an influential and sacred symbol believed to create a precious celestial Qi bringing strength, power and good destiny in our homes and our workplaces. The dragons guard our homes and surround us with protective energy. Also, a crystal or pearl in the Feng Shui dragon's claw represents richness, power and breadth of possibilities. The dragon symbolizes the strength of vital life as cosmic breath of life or cosmic energy. It's that breath of life that energizes all things, animate and inanimate. The dragon is often represented as playing with a ball of fire symbolizing this vital life force. In the center of the fireball is the precious pearl which symbolizes the purest energy or the elixir of life sought by the alchemist around the world. The ancient art and science of Feng Shui (literally: wind-water) use many techniques to eliminate obstacles to our success and our good health while giving us the energy necessary for maximum efficiency. One technique is to use the symbols appropriately to stimulate the action of the subconscious and act as an anchor point in the subconscious to help us achieve our stated intentions. The picture of dragon has therefore been suggested for thousands of years as a remedy that requires courage, enthusiasm and positive results. With this in mind, inviting a dragon, or dragons, to live in your home is a great symbolic gesture. By placing a dragon statue or figurine anywhere in your home or office, you will energize an area of your life that may be clogged and needs revitalization. A dragon well placed will stimulate the introduction into your life of a harmonious Cosmic Chi and prosper. Symbolically, dragons, as an abundant and strong life force, represent prosperity. Indeed, the water in which there are many dragons symbolizes money flowing towards you, accumulating in pools, bubbling in fountains, flowing in streams. THE images of flowing water are not as powerful as reality but definitely a dynamic substitute. You need a dragon in your home if your personal energy is down or if there is no more money. As dragons can symbolize water and water symbolizes money, the best color for dragons would be water color (black, dark blue green, light blue, etc.) or the color of silver (green or gold) or the color of vitality and energy (red). Without water, we cannot live. With plenty of water, we can grow our crops and live quite abundantly. With financial abundance, we have the power to buy and ways to share our abundance with others. As abundance is symbolized by flowing water, the best material for making dragons is the metal, which becomes liquid as it melts. Feng Shui tradition says that the metal element nourishes the water element.
